I like the look of silver locks.
Recently I was trying on some frames at my optician's, I have been going to him for about 25 years. He prides himself of being able to judge whether his client's choice will suit them.
I tried on a rather nice purple pair and he said 'oh no you can't have those as they make your hair look greyer'. And there's me thinking my locks look ash blonde 
My grey roots are about three inches long now. Looks terrible but I keep having it trimmed so another six months and I'll be a silver fox. 
I seem to remember it was a popular look among older celebs etc. a couple of years ago, apparently to show the world that they weren't going grey...
In the 1960s if you coloured you hair when re growth came through there was a dash to the Hairdressers to get your roots touched up.
Nowadays that does seem to happen. The lovely Ellie on Countryfile has this awful dark parting against her blonde locks 
. Lots of other celebrities do the same.
Do you think they leave it on purpose ?
